ISANATUR Presents UP4HEALTH bio ingredients applications at BeonNAT project Workshop

As the coordinator of the UP4HEALTH project, ISANATUR proudly represented the consortium at the recent BeonNAT workshop on High-Value Bioproducts from Underutilised Biomass Resources and Bioresidues, hosted by IPB-CIMO.

ISANATUR showcased  the project’s innovative integrated biorefinery located in Navarra. This cutting-edge solution transforms food processing by-products, such as grape pomace, olive pomace, olive stones, and nuts by-products into high-value, sustainable ingredients for the nutraceutical and cosmetics industries.

Two key milestones presented during the workshop highlighted UP4HEALTH’s impact:

  1. Prebiofenol+: ISANATUR-ECOPROLIVE has developed Prebiofenol+, a natural olive extract with prebiotic properties with validated health benefits in human health. ISANATUR healthier ingredients for the nutraceutical and cosmetics sectors.
  • Zero-Waste Extraction Plant: ISANATUR has established a state-of-the-art, zero-waste extraction plant capable of processing natural compounds through atomization, fermentation, centrifugation, and supercritical fluid extraction with Food Grade standards. This facility operates at scales from TRL4 to TRL8, with up to 5,000 liters of input volume, enabling the transformation of food by-products such as grape pomace, olive pomace, olive stones, and nut residues into sustainable, high-value ingredients.

ISANATUR’s presentation at the workshop highlighted these achievements, emphasizing the project’s innovative integrated biorefinery and its alignment with Europe’s vision for decarbonization, the circular economy, and a sustainable bioeconomy.

The BeonNAT workshop provided an excellent platform to connect with other leading projects, including Sustainext, FIBSUN, MIDAS, and BeonNAT, to explore innovative processes for converting biomass into fibers, biochemicals, biochar, and other high-value bioproducts. This collaboration fosters knowledge-sharing and strengthens efforts to unlock the potential of underutilized biomass resources.

ISANATUR remains dedicated to advancing sustainable innovations and leading the way in unlocking the potential of underutilized biomass resources.
